Color Psychology: The Influence of Color on Emotions & Behavior in Architectural & Interior Design

We often believe that we are the sole authors of our thoughts and emotions when in fact, a lot of factors can influence them. One of these factors is represented by colours.

The class is composed of 3 main parts:

1. Why colour affects us

2. The 3 factors impacting our perception of colour: Light, Culture and Time

3. Finally, 4 interesting stories illustrating how colour is intertwined with how people feel and behave and how it can be used as a tool to bring out certain emotions or behaviours from us.
